Rating 4.0
I was very pleased with the service provided by Ronald P Sherry & Son in regard to the funeral of my late sister Teresa Anne Hehir. You will see further on why I have given a 4-star rather than a 5-star rating.

My dealings were mostly with Marian who was very helpful in guiding me through the various options of coffin selection, burial sites and graveside prayers etc. As well as telephone and e-mail contact I met Marian face to face when I was in London sorting through my late sister's flat. The premises in Bell Street were scrupulously clean and comfortable. I also had some dealings with Rita and Valerie who were likewise very helpful and prompt in responding to my queries. So many thanks to Marian, Rita and Valerie for all the assistance provided to me.

I was very grateful to Fabio and his team for the dignified and considerate handling of the burial itself. I had meant to thank them at the time but I think I may have become distracted by something and overlooked this little courtesy so I hope they will accept my belated thanks.

Everyone did a very good job.

I had one little disappointment which was that Teresa's age was displayed on the coffin. I don't think she would have liked this herself and I certainly did not. Nothing can be done about that now in relation to Teresa's funeral but I would hope that the Funeral Directors would maybe rethink this policy and at least ask for the views of whoever is arranging the funeral. I understand this might not be of the same importance to everyone as it was to me. Had it not been for this I would have given a 5-star rating. Although I was taken aback by this display of age (and had never seen it done on any of my other relatives' coffins) I would not want it to detract from the excellent work done in relation to the funeral. I understand that the wooden cross provided for the grave has been altered to remove the age or date of birth and I am most grateful for that.

Marian also arranged for Father Ben to do a little graveside service which was beautifully conducted by him and I was delighted. So many thanks and gratitude to Father Ben.

All in all, Ronald P Sherry helped to reduce the stress for me of having to arrange the funeral of a close relative.

I would just like to say a huge thank you to all your staff for the support and help my family received after the passing of my great uncle, from the moment we made first contact at your office to bring picked up and taken to the crematorium, during the service to being taken back everyone was very professional, polite, helpful and patient. We couldn’t have been in better hands at such a sad time. Thank you very much to all your staff for making the day just that little bit easier to deal with.

The service we received from Rita was great from start to finish. We received a warm welcome and Rita explained all the options in detail and we didn't feel pressured into making decisions. We were kept informed at all times prior to the funeral. We met with the Funeral Director (Pravin) prior to the day and he made sure that everything went smoothly.
We had used Sherry's for my dad's funeral 12 years ago and we had no hesitation in using them again for my mum.
